Edwards devotes the second half of the book to discussing Jesus as savior in light of contemporary cultural currents, specifically addressing the thorny issues of religious pluralism, moral relativism, postmodernism, and the quest for world peace. Illustrated with real-life stories, Is Jesus the Only Savior? gives a fair hearing to twenty-first-century concerns while upholding historic Christian faith.
Princeton Seminary Bulletin
"In this well-written volume, James Edwards turns his theological ship into the relativistic winds of present western intellectual culture and sails against the tide of postmodern skepticism regarding the truth value of all religious claims."
Themelios
"A well-written and wide-ranging book. . . Its value is in bringing together in one volume such a wide range of topics, all of which are handled competently."
Stephen T. Davis
"Lively and cleverly written yet carefully argued. . . I enthusiastically recommend this book to all who are interested in the truth about Jesus."
D. A. Carson
"Grounded in scholarship and common sense, this book lays out in brief compass why Jesus remains the only savior."
I. Howard Marshall
"An unusual book on the question of religious pluralism. . . This valuable contribution from the pen of a New Testament scholar will assist readers looking for a defense of the historical Christian understanding of the person and place of Jesus."
